For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the lamb overnight with olive oil, lemon juice, and additional herbs. Adjust the cooking time based on the desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer for accurate results. Letting the lamb rest is crucial for achieving maximum tenderness and juiciness.
